That was how the exchange went when I called technical support...and the Tech Center was OFFSHORE...after 5 minutes, I decided I would fix the problem myself...and wondered how some companies actually CHARGE for customer service BY THE MINUTE...!

I maybe the exception here but I always make telemarketers repeat them selves even if I do understand them. very few actually speak English and most are calling from off shore . If I need tech support and the person can`t speak properly I ask for some one else.
Not trying to slam anyone but I find talking to people from the deep south is confusing, I will usually ask where they are from,then I just adjust my listening to take in their drawl. I find it works for friends & customers from around the world.
